Ben Smith (one half of the duo Smith & Brewer) is an unbelievably talented guitarist and singer–songwriter. Ben delivers a brilliantly crafted solo show, which is warm, captivating and joyous to watch, his enthusiasm and skill is fabulous to watch and his indicate guitar style is nothing short of perfection.
His warm, brilliantly crafted songs can range from foot-tapping bluegrass and up-tempo folk to slow, lazy blues, steeped in the traditions of folk, blues, and roots music. Ben’s influences are evident in every note he plays as he channels the essence of B.B King, John Martyn and Jerry Reed.
This is one of those shows which is not to missed. Tickets are strictly limited and our intimate listen room will be an electrifying place to see Ben perform…

What to expect in a “listening room”...
We are trying to create an intimate, cozy, and casual atmosphere, where the focus is on the music, you can expect authentic music, stories, and conversation before and after the show. The dress code is casual and comfortable, you can expect a warm welcome and an excellent show.
There is no stage in our “listening room”, this is because we wanted to create a space where people can feel equal, without the traditional boundaries created by an elevated stage. Music can be a great leveller, and we want you to feel part of the show.
Our "Listening Room” has unallocated seating, so arrive early to get the best seats, we have some sofas, standard dining chairs and also high chairs for a more elevated view from the back. Entry is only possible with a ticket, and we usually sell out so book early to avoid missing out.
